PhD in Applied Mathematics

The Department of Mathematics runs doctoral programs in both Mathematics and Applied Mathematics, and students are admitted to one or the other. This listing is the Applied Mathematics doctorate, whose requirements differ only slightly from the Mathematics PhD. Transfers between the two are routine if made before the qualifying examination. Applicants who have already done graduate mathematics must show strong evidence of research capability, and students from other campus programs must apply formally. Applications for Fall entry are due December 1, 2026. The GRE subject test is required. The program page also links to the department's own site for further detail. Admission details are listed in the Graduate Division program directory, along with department contact information. Applicants should confirm current requirements on the program's graduate admissions page.
